One of my theme songs, currently appropriate

[brightrosefox]

One day, one night, one moment,
My dreams could be, tomorrow.
One step, one fall, one falter,
East or west, over earth or by ocean.
One way to be my journey,
This way could be my book of days.

Ó lá go lá, mo thuras,
An bealach fada romham.
Ó oíche go hoíche, mo thuras,
Na scéalta nach mbeidh a choích.
(From day to day, my journey,
The long pilgrimage before me.
From night to night, my journey,
The stories that will never be again.)

No day, no night, no moment,
Can hold me back from trying.
I'll fly, I'll fall, I'll falter,
I'll find my day may be,
Far and away,
Far and away.

One day, one night, one moment,
With a dream to believe in.
One step, one fall, one falter,
Found a new earth across a wide ocean.
This way became my journey,
This day ends together,
Far and away.

This day ends together,
Far and away.
Far and away.

-Enya, Book Of Days

Huhm, I'd forgotten all about this song over the years...I used to love listening to it when I first discovered it on the soundtrack of Far and Away. Which I know I still have . . .

I didn't even know it was on the soundtrack until a few years ago when Adam showed me the movie (it's one of his favorite love stories).
